RECEIVING VAULT FINISHED Beautiful Tomb at Maplewocd —New Moving Picture House for Mocsup—Work Start- Cemetery Cost About $13,000 ed on New Winchester Building. One of the most beautiful receiving vaults in the state has been complet- ed' at Maplewood cemetery by the Peck-McWillams Co., of this city, at a cost of about $13000. The work was started on the vault in Novem- ber, 1915, but owing to the cold weather last winter and spring the work progressed slowly as the condi- tions were unsatisfactory for the mar- ble and granite work. The vault stands to the west of the main entrance and is built into a bank and faces the west. The right and Jeft wings of the vault are covered with earth and turf. In addition to the concrete sidewalk in front of the vault a cement roadway 20 feet wide and 80 feet long has been laid. The entrance to the vault is in Barre granite with large bronze ornamenta! docrs, swinging inward into the vesti- bule. Over the entrance is a sunken panel in which are the words, ‘“Ma- plewood Cemetery,” in five-inch raised letters. Along the outside of the winge extend granite bcaches.

Building permits grarted in the ci- tles of New Haven, Bridgeport, Hart- ford, Waterbury, New FEritain and Stamford during the week number 186, which compares with 113 issued in the same cities during -the Ilke week of the year 1915.

Usa soft water in the pipes if the machine is a hot water aff fard water will leave a deposit of 1i the same as it docs in a teakettle, A spirit level is not necessar: sm pan of water will do just as w. for leveling up an incubator. Try it on all four corners of the machine. It is important that the incubator stands perfectly level. One frequently has difficulty during a cold spell of weather in keeping up the temperature in the egg chamber. Try setting:a lamp on the iloor near the incubator. A lamp with a squatty bowl can be set directly under the machine. I have used.a lantern with goou resnits, writes Mrs. T. J. Bolt in The Farm Journal. Awything which willjy warm the air of the room will answer the. purpose. If the incubator is in a dry location, and if a cloth is wrung out of hot water and laid over the bottom of the machine about the 1fth or. 1vth day, it will materially assist' the. hatching process. Spread newspapers over the-nursery floor before the hatch begins. This will do away with the necessity of washing after the chicks are removed. Cover: the papers with a cloth to help the chicks in getting on their feot. The instruction book will probably advise keeping the doors closed tightly during the hatch. DBut if a watch is kept through the inner glass ' some eges will be seen with empty shells attached. Sometimes an egg rolls into an empty shell, and this prevents the chick from breaking through. ‘Remove the empty shells but do it quickly, leaving the doors open only a few seconds at a-time, so as not to lower the temperature inside the machine. Don’'t Ye in a hurry about taking out the chicks. Leave them in the nursery for several hours after: they are thoroughly dry. Quarter them in several smail flocks rather than in one large flock; give dry feed, clean water, exercise and warmth. SOME TROUBLESOME PESTS And the Way to Deal With Them so They Will Not Bother. Many insects and plant diseases re- main “during the winter on tha parts or remnants of the plants infested. For cxample. the cabbage plant louse or aphis. which causes cabbage plants to become dwarfed and have a mil- dewed appeatance, rcmaine on thc oid cabbage plants in the garden and truck . portions - of the 1f, however, near as much danger of their reap- pearing next spring, savs E. A, Sur- face. If one travels through the coun- try be can see great. numbers of ctubs of cabbaze plapts thpt were not gath- ered, and these may 'be allowed o re- main out during the entire winter. Two or ihree different kinds of in- sects, and at least two kinds-of plant diseases, are liablc to be carried over with them. 2 E The same ple -holds zood in regard to fightin: her pests, such as potatc stalik b the asparagus beetle, the stinking ash bug and many olher nests tlat bass the winter The Lest possible pra: go through the garden and truck patch now with the greatest possible thor- oughness and gather together all #n- used parts of planis or weeds and trasn and pile all in a heap @nd burn it, or compost it. By composting is meant to rot. it together with or straw, and every form compost or dec: ter. Insects and plant diseascs cannot live in a real compost heap, where heat is gencrcted by decaying organic macerial; and, where there is moisture with this, thé disease germe and.in- sects are destroyed. especially if the compost heap is forked over occasion- ally and given proper attention. There is one slight loss due to this burning. This loss is from the fact that all organic material is necded to go into the soil as humus, and that whichi is burned leaves hehind only the ash, which is not nearly so valuable as the humus.. Yet if it is not to be com- posted or thoroughly rotted, it should by-all means be burned for the suake of gétting rid of the pests it contains. It not safe to wait untii spring to un- lertake the.cleaning up of gardens and truck patches, as pests may commence early to escape thercfrom. CIDER FOR THE COUNTY. From Drops and Cull Apples Wasted—Trifling Cost Market. Now and Good There are many drop and cull ap- ples which are. going to waste the different. sections which might well be made at a trifiing cost and if well made will find a ready sale locally. The large buyers in the cities will purchase large amounts if one can guarantee it and have it standardized and of good quality. The agricultural experiment station at Geneva, N. Y., after seven years of investigation, ~has issued a builetin which contains many interest- ing details relative to ‘making cider, vinegar. - Many people ‘in the county have found that it is difficult to make vinegar which will reach the stand- ard because is doesn’'t have the fe- quired amount of acidity. The proper degree of acidity is reackted but de- terioration tales place becausc of a lack of knowledge or care. Those in the county who make vinegar wouid do well to send for Bulletin 258 to the experiment station. Geneva, N. Y, and study some of its recommendations. NECESSITY OF APPLES.

Then when the time comes to put these supers in pl ce’ they are all ready. Truly a itch in time saves nine.

Read what the other successful fel- low is doing, for beekeeping is a pro- gressive profession, and many new ‘wrinkles are being discovered that mean short cuts to success. Be wary about many of the new contraptions offered for sale which promise to prevent. swarming, or to lure wild swarms into hives. ‘While there have been im- provements. in bee fixtures, and many new methods which have proven tieir worth, still *he habits of the bees have remained the same, and the funda- mental things essential to success are about as they were yeas ago. The Department of Agfll:lllt\me, at Washington, has fssued for free dis- tribution some good literature on beekeeping and these pamphlets con- stitute a helpful volume on the sub- Ject, and are reliable as the govern- ment has a magnificent corp of experts at work. Suggestions are given as to honey.plants which may be made to fruw in dlll'erent sections of the coun- ry. Often it is Worlh while to look into these matters, when it costs you noth- ing to do so except the stamp to mail the letter. Honey, whether comb or extracted, Is bringing goor prices, and this is the natural seasce) of the year when it is consumed by the general public. Much spare time can be profitably spent in disposing of what surplus may have been left on hand. PIGEONS FOR PDOFIT. ins and Outs of Squab Raising For Market—Of Interest to All Our Folks. The time has gone by when any one having a few old common pigeons in the back-yard can wring their necks and send them to market. They must e “just so” now, or no sale. If you have 100 slick, juicy squabs and wish to send them to market, get up bright and early in the morning and kill them before the old birds are fed, so that the crops will be empty. One smart man can attend to 1,000 pairs. Bowei trouble in pigeons is usually the result of improper feeding, filthy water and crowding. In the breeding of pigeons it is well to remember that size is influenced largely by the female. 1t is the short-sighted and inexperi- enc§d breeder that sells poor quality and expects to make a living. Birds bred from -good foundation stock will,shev thefnzood qualities for Saveral generations,to come. Keep Your crop free from feathers.. Examine some of them and you will find lice and mites. Burn them and lessen the trouble. Don’t tend your birds on the install- ment plan and then say there is noth- Ing in the business. Common sense, care and attention are the only roads fpat lead to suc- cess, and even then you find some thorns by the wayside.
